Some folks couldn't get ruthless points on their runs. I have fixed it and released the bugs to the sky above.

And by same page, I mean the dev build was different from public build where we thought certain significant lore details were in every timeline. It wasn't!

Bugs like spelling mistakes, grammar derps, and some inconsequential structuring fixed up. Lastly, Steam's build now has one unified build between PC and Mac, so there should be less steps to get them both working for future updates.

Some of ya'll went deep to find those visual glitches, and we've got you! Visual glitches have been taken out, and a slew of sneaky typos have been nixed. Because of how easy this was, we were able to focus on new features!

• Streamer Mode! On every run except True Ending, you can skip the first 3 or so hours to get to the more general audience appropriate parts of the plot, with the slow burn being summed up in cheeky little sentences. You should be able to start character routes sooner than later if you go with Streamer Mode. If you decide to choose "Explorer Mode" for the slow burn and learn more about the world and its characters, the game proceeds as normal.
  
  
• New OC for Most of You! A fan's character has entered the world of Xal! You'll see her right at the very start of the game. We hope you enjoy Piaxa. She's adorable. Thank you for your support!
  
  
• Alt dialogue for a few scenes Xanamae. No matter the mode, had her dialogue shortened even more. This time only partly because of how wordy she is! This time, it's because Hilde covers her lore drop.
  
  
• Hilde Covers Humans Lying. You're potentially introduced to Furnell early as Hilde's first mandatory lecture now focuses on the ability to lie, and not organs or anything else. Consequently, the lecture is far shorter.
  

Some quality of life updates, as well as some nerfs and buffs!

• A slew of obscure and not so obscure typos have been taken care of.
  
• Some narrative clarifications to reduce vagueness in some instances.
  
• You now have to complete the game before you fall asleep in front of someone.
  
• Furnell's route is now easier to unlock.
  
• Culiver is no longer a magical girl on his route.
  
• We celebrate not having to update the game for well over a week. \o/
  
• Sleep resumes.
  

More annoying bugs have been taken care of. Comes out, we couldn't predict every single combination a player could undergo!

Ya'll found some truly obscure bugs, but we squashed every last one of them, and the experience is now more polished for it. Just little tiny things like names not being labeled, or misspellings.

Additionally, you can now go into the Extras > About portion of the game and vote for your favorite character in this year's People's Choice Awards! Alternatively, you can click the giant link above and it'll take you to the same place! There, you can vote in a wide variety of categories for best, worst, most charismatic, ect!
